AQRate's Mandela Day initiative

Today the AQRate team gave a little back to the community by providing much needed stationery and making 670 sandwiches for the J.R Klopper Primary School in Elsiesrivier.

Our team was taken on a tour around the school by the school’s principle Mr February. It was humbling to see how much dedication and love the teachers and staff have for the school and their learners. They face challenging circumstances on a daily basis and yet they all seem so positive and one can feel the passion.

The greatest challenge facing the school at the moment is theft. They cannot use some of the classrooms as thieves have broken through the roofs and have stolen everything from desks to electrical wiring, thus, leaving half the school in darkness and making it near impossible to teach, especially on cold, dark winter mornings.

It was certainly wonderful to see all the smiles on the little faces and we wish to do more to help in the future.
